Public transport
Anyone who advocates train travel as a viable alternative to driving, needs to try sitting in coach e of the kings cross to Newcastle at this moment in time
To replicate this journey I propose drilling holes in all four dampers on my return home Unpleasant is not the word it's worse Brian |

Should get better , they have new trains on order so most train companies tend to wind down the servicing and repairs as its not cost effective.
Got the same thing on the west coast at the moment , book a fault on a train and it tends to stay like it for a while(until it has to be done) Stan

Driving into London? You are joking. Rather go for a swim in shark infested sea thank you.
